GENERAL DESCRIPTION

AU:DTC P0140 O2 SENSOR CIRCUIT NO ACTIVITY DETECTED (BANK1 

SENSOR2)

1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Detect the rear oxygen sensor open or short circuit. Judge as NG when the rear oxygen sensor voltage can

be determined to be abnormal considering conditions such as intake air amount, engine coolant tempera-

ture, main feedback control and deceleration fuel cut.

4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE

Perform the diagnosis once after starting the engine.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

• Abnormality Judgment
If the duration of time while the following conditions are met is longer than the time indicated, judge as NG.

Time Needed for Diagnosis: 90000 ms

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cy-

cles.
• Normality Judgment
Judge as OK and clear the NG if the following conditions are established.
